Mantras for Difficult Times

Let me share a mantra with you that claims that the Lord's Grace can make the cripple climb mountains and the mute eloquent.  With this mantra, you are asking for the Lord's grace to ease you out of difficult situations.

Mookam karoti vaachaalam
Pangum langhayatey girim
Yatkripaa tamaham vandey
Paramaananda Maadhavam

Which means:

I salute that Madhava,
the source of Supreme Bliss,
whose Grace makes the dumb man eloquent
and the cripple cross mountains

There are times in life where the more one tries to remedy a situation with someone, the worse it becomes. When you encounter a situation where even communication fails, then recite the following Mantra. It is the 15th verse of the 15th  chapter of the Bhagvad Geeta.  Lord Krishna states:

Sarvasya chaaham hridi sannivishto
Mattas smritir jnaanama pohanamcha
Vedaishcha sarvaair ahameva vedyo
Vedaanta krid veda videva chaaham

Which means:

I am seated in the hearts of all.
Knowledge and memory stem from Me,
as well as their absence.
I Am verily that which has to be known by all the Vedas.
I Am the author of the Vedanta,
and the Knower of the Veda I AM.

The key sentence here is that Krishna claims that He is seated in the hearts of all. As you recite this Mantra, know that the other person is aware of whatever you truly are experiencing vis-à-vis them, and/or the situation.

It pays to pray to Hanumanji as He was the instrument in re-uniting Shri Ram with Ma Seeta. Also Shree Ram is forever indebted to Hanumanji as the latter wanted nothing in return for His services. All He wanted was to continue to be devoted to the Divine Pair.

Do read the Hanuman Chalisa and the translation of the Sunder-Kaand as these prayers are a great help in times of trouble.  Also, the one prayer acknowledged by Lord Vishnu, as the prayer to remove problems and gain the Lord's grace is the Satyanarayan Katha.  This prayer should be done on full moons only for maximum effect.

In the end, remember that the Lord knows best.  You must repose your trust in him, and always end your prayers with the words, "Lord, thy will be done."  This way, whatever is right, will happen.
